What I don't understand is why is he willing to do it so cheap for Shaw? It reminds of a friend that I hired to do some plumbing. He said he'd charge me $160 for the day and if he had to come back the second day he'd only charge me $100. I told my husband (who is a contractor) and he said, "Only hire him for the second day."

Yup, but keep in mind, his company is subcontracted to Shaw and T, not @HOME.

Gottcha, but T is paying 5x what Shaw is for installs. That is absolutely rediculous. The cost of living is not that great between our countries in many areas. The exchange rate is only 43% not 500% different. Still makes no sense to me.

BTW, might I borrow from England...God save ATHM
